;D I agree ... Linux is king.

Since Windows 11 is basically a no-go territory and will only get worse, GroovyMAME/Emudriver support will remain limited to Windows 10 as long as it's around.
Linux is the future-proof path.

I understand this sentiment, but Windows 11 is unfortunately still best for those of us that want somewhat full-functionality on our Emudriver PC's.
Like being able to connect to the internet without too many worries.
But also being able to play modern PC games and 3rd party mods without worrying about Linux compatibility layers.
An example being my frequent use case: using Special K to enforce specific resolutions and super low-latency Vsync (Latent Sync) on modern pixel art games. Latent Sync with its delay bias adjustment is essentially "frame delay" that works on most PC games. It's been super nice for cutting input latency to basically nil on modern pixel art games.
I don't think there's anything quite equivalent to that I could use on Linux. Like I know I could play those games, I know they'll be low latency, but I'm not sure if there is method to essentially do the frame delay I'm currently doing via Special K.

There are lots of Japanese Windows games which won't work properly beyond W7/Vista and they benefit greatly from a 15-kHz set-up, so this OS will always have a place for gaming enthusiasts beyond personal reasons. (Sure, you can have 2 dedicated set-up's, but c'mon).
So, Robbbert, anything you can share with us for the future will be welcome.

Rather than me type it all out again, link to my post on the subject:

I haven't tested again since that was written, but I can do so if the patch doesn't work any more.

Cool, thanks. As you say, it's better to wait as likely something else will break in the meantime.
